RFC: CommonGrants apply routes and models

[Billy]

Overview

Hi all, CommonGrants recently introduced experimental support for grant applications in v0.2.0 release of the protocol. We’re now looking for feedback on the new routes, models, and other features introduced with this latest release.

Comment Period Open Through May 17

Areas for feedback

Here are some specific areas about which we’re looking for feedback:

• Apply routes: Experimental routes added to the “Competitions”, “Applications”, and “Forms” tags in our CommonGrants v0.2.0 OpenAPI docs.
• Apply models: New models added to support the apply routes, including:
  • Competition
  • Application
  • Form
  • Form response
• Application data mapping: New models added to support mapping form responses to the CommonGrants data standard, including:
  • Proposal
  • Organization
  • Person
  • Mapping schema
• Form library PoC: Proof of Concept for using the CommonGrants form mappings to pre-fill data across forms.
  • Form library
  • Form pre-fill playground

The form pre-fill feature sounds especially useful for reducing repetitive data entry. I’d be interested to see how the mapping handles fields that use different names across application forms.
